I noticed it when videos were bogged down due to a maxed-out GPU. Right now, the only way I know to stop it is to shut down BOINC & restart it. My computing preferences are set to avoid using it when the the computer is active: Suspend work while computer is in use? yes Suspend GPU work while computer is in use? Enforced by version 6.6.21+ yes 'In use' means mouse/keyboard activity in last 60 minutes Any ideas? Hey - What planet is this? ID: 1382343 ·
